Test and Development Centre for Welfare Technology

TUCV brings companies within healthcare and welfaretech in close and early contact with municipality and hospital.

Purpose

The Center focuses on fast-track development and validation of products close to market to help companies as fast and effectively as possible.

Most activity in TUCV is centered around live settings in the Municipality/Hospital. If and when municipality/hospital get involved they will engage both patients/citizens and staff in the development process.

The ambition is to ensure and support development of new and not least relevant products to both hospital and municipality. Identification and translation of needs from citizens or employees to companies are a key area of our work.
